It could be that it is a piece of knowledge yet unknown. It would be interesting to learn what made Morotis the way they are.

Into reading some of the Documents recovered regarding the Anchors and the Nehil, there is a mention of a Boat that ferried Souls. It might be a long shot, but with the Visions some have had and the reports about the Utterdark, that they are possibly connected. I have heard from a source that a 'Word' did use its name in uttering a ritual, but they cannot for the gods remember the name. It is all connected and I will be collating as much information about all of it, and looking into the essence of truth guided by My Lady Fortune . I am going to be arriving in Derwentshire over the weekend and hopefully can discuss more of what has been occurring.
Praise be to the Seven.

I believe I may be a little late.

But I believe the translation of texts can be made far easier by a spell, Comprehend Languages.

If there are any pages left to translate, I might considering asking a local mage who knows the spell to give it a go. If there are none in your area with the spell, I have it in my spell book and would be happy to give it a go myself.

Just Justin,

This book was written in the language of the Gods, known as Elysian.

Both High Father Percival of Rolbor and Bryan of Vleybor were unable to use their miracles to make the work easier.

I am unsure a spell would work.

I am letting you know this as I was told first hand by Percival.

I am re-reading these stories and I do not understand them.

The later stories speak of hunters - are these creatures of the Utterdark, Fae or Demons?

The story about Morotis tells me nothing about why he was contained by the gods, what crime he committed, or why he created the Words.

Why call them Words at all?

Am I right in thinking the book was found soon after the lightning strikes that brought the words to us?

With all the recent talk of the Wild Hunt and the mention of relentless hunters in these stories, am I just seeing connections where nothing exists?

Praise be to Rolbor and Crowa.

Milly, the book was found before the lightning.
Bryan and Percival worked to translate the words, Percival had the book upon his person when that bastard Zurkon tried to rip it from his grip.

You are one of my favourite people, Hug, and I have no doubt that we would be in a far worse situation were it not for your research and gathering of information.

We have access to 6 out of 7 chapters of the book. I may be miss remembering that though. I think Zukon or whatever it's name was had the last chapter.

The chapters we have access to have been written up on posted on these notice boards.

I'll try to find them and put them on the top of the pile.
